What Got You Here Won't Keep You Here

A Teams notification sounds. It’s a new request, a tight deadline, and suddenly your weekend plans feel negotiable. Sound familiar? In this episode, Kamal Patel, Partner at Blue Skies Consulting, makes a quietly controversial claim: The grind never ends, but you get to decide when it has your attention.  Talking about his early days, where every new client expectation brought in a new panic level, he explains how he has observed why "balance" might be the wrong goal entirely, how the best professionals train themselves to pause before reacting, and why setting boundaries isn't career suicide but a responsible way to build trust.  If you've ever said 'sure, I can take that on' while internally screaming, this one's for you.  A production of  Blue Skies Consulting Producers: Giraud Jackson, Jason Vicks, Chris Myers Host: Kenis Folk Audio Engineer: Brandon Friedel Creator & Strategic Advisor: Justin Nolte Connect with us on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/company/blueskiesconsulting  Remember, behind every transformation, there’s a story worth telling.
